The centre-left Berliner Zeitung is the only East German title to achieve national prominence since unification. It was relaunched in 1997 with a completely new design. The daily says its journalists come "from east and west", and it styles itself as a "young, modern and dynamic" paper for the whole of Germany. In November 2005 the paper was bought by the British businessman David Montgomery - arousing fears of job cuts amongst its staff.
